Russia cancels payments to prisoners who signed contracts and went to war in Ukraine

The article from MSN discusses how Russia has reportedly stopped payments to prisoners who were recruited to fight in the war in Ukraine. These prisoners had signed contracts with the Russian military, expecting financial compensation for their service. However, according to reports, many have not received the promised payments, leading to dissatisfaction and complaints among the ranks. This situation has been highlighted by independent Russian media outlets, which have noted that the lack of payment could undermine morale and the effectiveness of these units. The Wagner Group, a private military company, was initially involved in recruiting these prisoners, but after its leader's death, the Russian Ministry of Defense took over, and issues with payment began to surface. This development comes amidst broader reports of logistical and administrative failures within the Russian military's operations in Ukraine.
